Hdt and mannitol: got my life back

Hi

For what it is worth, I take a table spoon of mannitol and 2000 mg of thiamine per day. I have no idea what brings the improvement. It is spectacular so I have no intention to change the posologie to find out !

Also take little dose of modopar 3 times a day

Way to go... And what combination do you credit your success to: Placebo (Mannitol, Thiamine), Nocebo (high-dose Madopar), Mannitol+low-dose Madopar, Mannitol+Thiamine, low-dose Madopar+Thiamine?

I would guess modopar + thiamine

But I do not really know. The best would be to stop thiamine and see what happens. But I don’t feel like doing that!!!😃

A combination of two elements considered by Dr. Costantini to be synergistic; my humble advice: make a short video of walking, speaking and trembling if you have it; if you get a pull test in med. put it aside and watch it after each protocol change. It will remain an objective proof of comparison in case of doubt.

in case you ask me:

no, they are two different things. Levodopa is taken at specific times as prescribed by the doctor. Vitamin B1 or thiamine when you want. My protocol is in my profilo.

Mannitol and Miralax (polyethylene glycol powdered mix laxitive) help me keep a little more regular.

How much do you take of the mannitol?

Still new but one thing is sure: between one teaspoon and one tablespoon a day keeps that much talked of constipation away.

This is great Sid44elosam. Could you please tell us more about your journey and how Mannitol and B1 have improved your condition? Thanks!

To make it short, my last visit to the neurologist was rated at ‘0’ on a scale from’0’ to ‘4’. Thé one before that was 1 +. So the neurologist said ‘ whatever you do, carry on’. I would say the main improvements are : gait, stone face, voice, walking

Sounds good to me. I wouldn’t change a thing if it’s working for you. Brilliant!

What were your symptoms before you started b1 and mannitol?I'm not on any meds yet. I have been diagnosed with Parkinsonism. I have tremors and muscle weakness on my dominant side. Struggle to get in and out of bed and the car,sometimes on and off the toilet. I have. limited use of my right hand so I do mostly everything with my left hand. I get cramping in my quadriceps when I sit and it then causes my big toe to lift up. That all resolves when I stand. I spend most of my time standing or laying down. MRI scheduled to determine if I have lumbar articular syndrome. I have degenerative arthritis..difficulty getting dressed I take omega3 D,NAC,vitamin d3,lipolic acid, co Q10,dopa plus, dha,vitamin c,multivitamins and minerals, mega Sporebiotic, magnesium, turmeric and b1. I am Afraid of side effects of pd meds. I am not sure what they will start me on. Any suggestions
